Great looking Warlock! The color choices are fantastic! I really like the checkered/harlequin theme you applied. The pattern has been done very neat without mistakes in the straight lines. the only criticism I can provide would be about the blending on the model; it could definately have been done a little smoother, but the over all look of the character is great! Definately a step above a quality table top paint job.

Wow, that's pretty damn good. I disagree with jamunition, i think it does suit it, but i have to admit im surprised at that. Great paint job and it'd be cool to see your harlequin army, if you do get it finished.

I especially like how the diamonds came out on his face. I disagree with the blending comment actually. Although it's not a perfect job I think it really works. I like that it makes it look like it was painted on and I think it suits the harley vibe.

Very well done! I'd have gone blind attempting that!  Also, it really stands out as unique- I don't think I have ever seen one even remotely like it before!

I really like the sword and the diamond pattern. I would do more highlighting on the wraithboad bits though.

Dude, you should post an elevated picture so that people can see the cards on the base more clearly. It's a neat detail that you should really show off.

That's is brilliant, wish I'd thought of that. Your sword is fantastic.
How did you make the diamonds equal in size? Just by eye or do you have a neat little trick?

Excellent job!
Love the harlequin pattern and the blade looks like it's made of ice!
I know what you mean about the big if. I can't fathom doing a whole army with a paint job that detailed, but it will be outstanding looking when completed

Very nice. I'm not really a fan of the check pattern in general, but yours seems well executed. What stands out for me is the sword, which looks truly fantastic. The bone armour on the chest looks great too.

Looks good. The sword is fantastic. And the card detail on the base is very characterful.

I drew the pattern on with a micron pen, then just traced over the lines with a brush after filling in the boxes. Kind of a pain, but worth it.

I think its really good... i think it does suit the model. I do agree about the blending though... perhaps a glaze would help with this... if you just use it on the diamond areas i think you will find it would add overall contrast to the piece too.
I'm no expert though.

P.S. The seer council models are so good.

I love the diamond pattern but the thing that really blows me away about this is the sword - that's amazing!
